What size motor does the GTR come with?Updated 3 days ago
The motor size on the GTR depends on which series you have:
🔌 GTR Series 1
Equipped with 2 x 1500W motors (each)
Uses a motor controller specifically tuned for 1500W motors
⚡ GTR Series 2
Equipped with 2 x 3000W motors (each)
Delivers more torque and improved hill-climbing
Uses a different motor controller designed for higher output
❗ Important compatibility notes
GTR Series 1 cannot run 3000W motors
GTR Series 2 cannot run 1500W motors
The motors and motor controllers are matched as a system. Swapping motor sizes between Series 1 and Series 2 is not supported and will result in improper operation.
⚙️ What about gears?
Both GTR Series 1 and Series 2 support the same range of gearing options, regardless of motor size:
32T
38T
47T (when available)
66T
There is no specific motor required for a specific gear. Gear choice affects ride characteristics like speed, torque, and acceleration, but does not determine motor compatibility.
✅ Key takeaway
Series 1 = 1500W motors only
Series 2 = 3000W motors only
Gear choice is flexible across both series
